Rex Ryan: Temptress?

For most of us here, unless you have some weird fetish, "Temptress" would be down at the bottom along with "Modest" on the How To Describe Rex Ryan list. However, neither you, nor I, nor those freaky fetishists out there are making this list. Fate is the author.

And Temptress is the number one entry. Fate looks at Rex Ryan and just cannot help itself. He is mouthwatering and Fate must have him. Fate cannot live without Rex. It's only a matter of time.

And this, is the frightening reality of Jets fandom at the moment. Please do not misinterpret - I love it right now. This team has never, as long as I've been around, been as energized. I can look at every single game on the schedule and legitimately think: "That's a Win." So does Rex. Not only does he think it, he lets every single person within earshot know it, too. I am enjoying watching this entire organization have pride in itself and it makes me forget about the crushing past failures.

However. And this is a big "However." There is something to be said for tempting Fate. It is dangerous. There is a fine line between confidence and hubris and Fate loves hubris.

So, be proud Jets players, coaches and fans. Take pride in each victory. As much as I would like to see the Jets take the bloodied corpse of the Patriots and drag them around Foxboro Stadium, don't do it.
